The current setup:

qmail with vpopmail's POP-before-SMTP is actually much less setup work because it works right out of the box.
Because that's the only thing the decrepit qmail handles. Any modern MTA has evolved quite far from that point. No matter if you prefer Postfix, Exim, Courier, Sendmail or something else but qmail...
Is this going to be a case of replacing the MTA just because something changed in the POP/IMAP server?
Unfortunately, we have a number of things in our environment that prevents us from making such changes, especially given the timescales.
